The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 2253 You little brat, you want me to be your babysitter!
"Thank you, senior. I will do my best to protect it."

Lin Chen sincerely thanked the unidentified senior. According to Sister Qi, the Yin-Yang Water and Fire Mirror had displayed its divine power and killed eighteen powerful beings in a row, which happened countless millennia ago. However, the person in front of him said that this happened before his eyes, which showed how old he was and how strong he was.

Lin Chen secretly rejoiced that he had made the right choice; if he had chosen to confront it head-on, the outcome might have been different.

He might not kill himself, but the Yin-Yang Water and Fire Mirror is definitely gone, and the Yin-Yang Spring is most likely gone too.

The middle-aged man turned to look at Lu Yao: "My name is Taixu. If you are not satisfied, you can come to me anytime."

Lu Yao nodded, without saying anything more.

He had his pride. If Lin Chen kept the Yin-Yang Water-Fire Mirror, the matter would naturally be over. But if it was taken away, he would risk everything to try and help Lin Chen get it back.

As for how capable the other party is, at most it will change the way he does things, not the outcome of doing things.

The middle-aged man nodded: "Then let's do it this way. Extend your hand."

Lin Chen obediently extended his hand. The middle-aged man raised his hand, and a golden light landed on the back of Lin Chen's hand. It was a simple-looking array symbol with a single pattern in the middle, resembling a star.

Lin Chen moved his fingers and clenched his fist, without feeling any discomfort.

The middle-aged man smiled and said, "When you encounter danger, inject your spiritual power into it, and it will establish a connection with me. Remember, this formation can only withstand the projection of my power once, and then it will be destroyed."

Lin Chen nodded: "Okay, senior, I've got it."

"Good luck."

The middle-aged man smiled slightly, and his body instantly turned into scattered golden particles, which flew in the air and disappeared in an instant.

Lin Chen finally breathed a sigh of relief, having overcome the crisis.

Although he had made a bet with the other party and might lose the Yin-Yang Water and Fire Mirror, there was still hope. Moreover, between saving a person and a magic weapon, Lin Chen would definitely choose to save the person.

Even losing the Yin-Yang Water-Fire Mirror would be worthwhile if it could help Lu Yao recover.

Putting aside the comparison between the value of human life and magical treasure, Lu Yao is, after all, a Great Luo Immortal, a prodigy of the immortal path. Just for that reason alone, he is worth saving.

Lu Yao looked at Lin Chen with a subtle expression: "You're really willing to give up such a powerful treasure as the Yin-Yang Water-Fire Mirror, just like that, to save me, a complete stranger?"

Lin Chen laughed heartily, "How can you say we're completely unrelated? Putting aside everything else, you're going to teach me the Free and Unfettered Journey, which is a great favor in terms of teaching skills. Isn't that enough?" "Besides, you're a Great Luo Immortal. I'm counting on you to protect me in the future. The Yin-Yang Water and Fire Realm is indeed powerful, but it doesn't have a way to control it. So it's just so-so. How can an inanimate object be more important than a living person?"

Lu Yao couldn't help but chuckle: "You little rascal, all you want is for me to be your babysitter all day long!"

Lin Chen chuckled and denied it repeatedly: "No, no, we're just friends, but I really respect you. An elder in the family is a treasure. Apart from your strength, your knowledge, your experience, and so on, they are all invaluable. Who would ask you to be their nanny?"

Lu Yao sighed, "I don't know if it's your good luck or mine that you actually found the Yin-Yang Spring..."

Lin Chen laughed and said, "Who cares who's lucky, as long as we found someone, that's good. Let's go back to the tower and get your treatment arranged first."

The two returned to the Linglong Tower and to his small house.

"So you just pour the two kinds of spring water together?"

"Yes."

Lin Chen found a wooden bucket, poured in the Yin Spring water, and immediately a cold aura filled the air. The surface of the bucket instantly froze, and the ice was even black.

Lin Chen poured in the hot spring water again. The water surface reacted violently as soon as it was poured in, thick white mist rose up, the icy coldness instantly decreased, and the open space became warmer.

Soon, the Yin Spring and Yang Spring were completely mixed, and the ice on the wooden barrel had completely melted. The liquid in the barrel was steaming, but there was no longer any feeling of intense heat or icy cold.

Lu Yao took off his clothes, sat cross-legged in the huge wooden tub, and completely immersed himself in it.

Lin Chen clicked his tongue: "That's pretty simple."

Lu Yao said that soaking the body in the Yin-Yang Spring would trigger the body to recover its vitality, which would take about ten days. After that, it would take time to slowly recuperate with elixirs and gradually return to its peak condition.

Lin Chen held the Yin-Yang Water-Fire Mirror and sensed its contents. He discovered that there was still some Yin Spring and Yang Spring left, and he immediately had an idea.

This Yangquan spring is formed from the Yin and Yang energies of heaven and earth. Yinquan spring is extremely Yin, and Yangquan spring is extremely Yang. If used to assist in cultivation, they correspond to the most powerful and the most gentle techniques, and will have a multiplier effect.

Yin Quan himself certainly couldn't use it, but thinking about it, he could save it for Chu Jiaxue. The Goddess Pure Heart Sutra she cultivated was an extremely Yin technique, and if she used it, it would surely have a great effect.

As for Yangquan, isn't that a perfect match for the Sun True Scripture he cultivates?
